Purpose of a Comprehensive Plan?
A Comprehensive Plan
provides a “blueprint” for how a community or region should grow in the future. It is a long-range plan—looking 20-30 years into the future. It addresses a wide range of recommendations relating to land use, transportation, parks, health, environment and open space, community facilities, utilities and infrastructure, institutions, urban design, historic preservation, community character and identity, housing and neighborhoods, and economic development, among others.
The City of Cincinnati current Plan, The Coordinated City Plan of 1980, is 30 years old. Both our City and the world have changed dramatically since then.
The City is creating a new Comprehensive Plan for future growth and development. Currently, a number of large projects are underway that will impact the City of Cincinnati. A long-range Plan will help us understand how each of these projects is connected.
The City of Cincinnati’s Comprehensive Plan will also incorporate the recommendations and the vast work already completed in other plans and studies such as GO Cincinnati, Agenda 360, and COMPASS, as well as recommendations from other City documents such as the View Corridor Study and Park Board Centennial Master Plan. PLAN CINCINNATI will develop prioritized recommendations necessary for future growth.Home - Project Overview - Project News - Working Groups - Public Input - Library - Contact Us
